The inventory of books In tite library is
progressing satisfactorily. Librarian liar-
rows hopes to have it completed by thte
end of May.
Librarian harrows is at work upon his
first annual report , whuicdi lie hopes to make
a complete account of the condition of the
library and tite work that has beeui done
since his advcnt to its managenient.
The bcard of directors is again wrestling
with the question of finances. The rotluced
tax levy for library purposes will compel a
tilost rigid hiusbantlitmg of the vrcsent year's
resources and lirovent any material expatt-
lon for sonic tIne to conic.
A certified copy of the ordinance under
witichi the lihtary board Is organizeti and
tIme library condttetcd is now on fIle in the
library. Heretofore the only accessible copy
of this important document was titat kept itt
tito chico of the city attorney.
A search atumong time archulves of tltue city
clerk's office last week unearthed the tnattit-
script copies of the first seven annual no-
poits of the Pttbiic Library boarti for the
years from 1877 to 1884. These reports have
never been printed. The librarian has been
instruetei to Itave them copied at huls con-
ronlence , so that. the library may ho in poe-
session of a complete file of all its reports
since its organization as a public institution.
The explanation of the actiomi of the city i
council in throwing out the bill for time It-
brarian's iticidentutle last month Is as hitm-
morous as It Is a reproach to the intelligence
of seine members of the council. One of the
items of tite bill read : "Subscription to Edo-
cation-$4. " The brilliant aldermumaim , who
ttever iteard of such a publication , imnmetii-
ntely jumped to the conclusion titat time board
was beconming recklessly extravagartt , and
lund even gone so far as to make a tionation
of $4 to the Board of Education. So , imistead
of making intulry , tue whole bill was hung
imp. It Is needless to say that u'hten the
item was explained all objections were with-
dravn and tue bill allowed.

mothers at the present time is that Children's Dept. of
' A . ( , ours on our second floor. The man back in New York i.
k 5. is making it decidedly interesting by reason of those scc-
i end purchases which arc now arriving every day. Friday
t we opened up a case of I 75 knee-pant Stilts which arc by
: Long odds the biggest values this town has ever seen.
They arc just as good and just as handsome and just as
- . - well made and trimmed as any suits you have ever seen - -
( marked $3.50 or $4.00 , but we are abLe to sell this particular -
: ticular lot at $2.SOpcrSuit. They are double-breasted
knee-pant Suits in all from 4 to 14 and
c _ - , ages years , consist -
; sist of Cheviots , Cassimeres and vVorstcds iii some of the " ; '
c _ prettiest patterns we have ever seen. Nothing but hard
work and shrewd bargain-driving could have secured us
tc these suits so that we couLd sell them for less than $3.00
: to $3.25 apiece. It's a veritable feast for you.
